VELVET GALE is an Idea...not a poem or Lyrics or anything...this is the second time I've borrowed it from Tim P....and I still haven't found it's Real Life...I'm startin' to think it may be a motor-bike....this one's about confusion (o really? dang!....sigh....)

VELVET GALE

CHORUS

All caught-short in a Velvet Gale
Of Hail an' Rain an' Mercy
Can't be straight about this, Darlin'
Got no real Place To Go....
_______________________

Where am I goin'?
Who am I bein'?
Where is Kind Fate
Takin' me this time now?...
Will it be good for me?
Good for my others?
Will I be ready?
An' will I know how?
_______________________

Great! Stupid questions...
I call this a Song! Damn!
It's hardly a Song -
An' not much of a Poem...
I want to know Boundless -
I want to be Freedom -
I want to have Wings -
An' jus' want to fly 'Home'....
_______________________

CHORUS
______________________

Got this soft huge Gale -
Not really like Velvet -
Blowin' my Mind apart -
Straight through my Heart!
So what am I frettin' for?
What am I questionin'?
Where is my Center -
An' what is my Part?
______________________

I'm Older than Young -
But not Wise like a River -
Jus' any ol' River
Flows wilder than I...
An' knows it's Way
Right to the Sea without flyin'
An' knows where 'Home' is without
Even half-tryin'....
